Your favorite war movie...

Hey what happened to "kelly's heroes" and "Enemy at the Gates".Ohh well here is my top 3 from that choice and by the way I wouldnt call Band of Brothers a movie per say.

1.Band of Brothers
2.Saving Private Ryan
3.The Patriot

 

I'm really suprised that Platoon isn't up there.

Other- The Longest Day.

 

Gettysburg (Civil War) , Where Eagles Dare (WW2), and Von Ryan's Express (WW2). All these are great movies that I would enjoy watching numerous times over and over.

 

Band of Brothers. Nothing even comes close.

Also, Sands of Iwo Jima is a really good movie that I don't see up there.

 

Band of Brothers

But i would have also said Saving Private Ryan and Platoon.

 

I really disagree with your loose definition of "war movie".

I love Patton, Apocalypse Now, Tora! Tora! Tora!, and even Midway. But they are not on this list. I voted for Casablanca since I think it is one of the best films of all time, and it is certainly set during WWII.

 

Apocalypse Now, any day of the week. It really oughta be on the list.

 

Saving Private Ryan, definitely.

 

Schindler's List, but I really like The Patriot, and also We Were Soldiers, not listed on the poll.

 

Kelly's Heroes is the best.

 

Band of Brothers (although it is a miniseries, it is still one of the most amazing things ever to be put on film)

Black Hawk Down would be my favorite war movie.

This list needs to be redone. Half the movies up there aren't even war movies.

 

I don't know, war movies aren't movies I watch often.
I voted for others, thnking of "Sophie Scholl- The last days". It is not actually a war movie, but a real good movie that that takes place during a war and in a difficult time, and since a lot of those listed movies are not real war movies, I figured, it couldn't hurt.
But I have heard, that Schindler's list is a well-made movie, too, so I'll have to watch it soon as well.

 

A War-Movie is different than a movie set during a war.

 

Other: All Quiet on the Western Front (1930)

QFT.

 

Okay, okay...I back down
So, a war-movie...I would say "All quiet on the Western front" too, because I think it is a really well-made movie with a deeper meaning.

 

Gone With The Wind is one of my all time favorites

 

And Patton is absolutely brilliant.

 

Other. I go for "Gettysburg"

 

Gone With the Wind without a doubt is the best war movie.

 

Saving Private Ryan.

 

Saving Private Ryan.

Patton, Tora! Tora! Tora! and Full Metal Jacket also come close.

 

Except that it's not really a war movie.

 

I'm stuck between several, including Apocalypse Now, Platoon, Full Metal Jacket, Hamburger Hill, Kingdom Of Heaven (DC), but seeing as none of them are up there it's got to be other

 

Braveheart

 

I still say Platoon for some reason.
